Zustand: New. Idioma/Language: Español. Esta colección cuenta con grandes nombres de la literatura, pero rescata también a maestros del género menos reconocidos. El resultado es una deliciosa oda a lo escalofriante y a lo extraño. Llega el invierno, las noches son más largas. Hay quienes se reúnen bajo el muérdago con sus familiares y amigos; otros abogan por la abolición del espíritu navideño bajo el lema «Prohibir la Navidad o Morir». Entre las páginas de esta colección de relatos acechan fantasmas y casas encantadas, pero también problemas cotidianos mucho más reconocibles y no menos aterradores. Y todos ellos tienen una cosa en común: el frío. Ese frío que nos recorre la columna al abrir la ventana una tarde de invierno, ya sea porque ahí fuera sopla una brisa helada o porque? ¿Quién sabe qué se esconde en esa oscuridad? CRÍTICA «Estos cuentos extraños son la lectura navideña perfecta, llena de visitantes inquietantes y espíritus amantes de la fiesta. » ?Christopher Hart, The Times «Es una verdadera delicia leer la obra de los maestros de lo extraño del pasado. » ?Oddly Weird Fiction *** Nota: Los envíos a España peninsular, Baleares y Canarias se realizan a través de mensajería urgente.

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - A wood fire on a wind-swept island. A little group of listeners bent toward the flames. And, unfolding slowly through the Sunday evening hours, the kind of story that ought not to be told aloud at all.These fifteen ghostly tales range from the quietly unsettling to the frankly horrible. A scholar's rosary of withered berries, gathered at the foot of a gallows, draws something dreadful into his quiet study. A bank of autumn fog over London teems with unseen, many-legged shapes. An ancient Scottish keep hides a chamber whose purpose no family member now living will name aloud. A tranquil cottage on a hillside proves to have a lodger that no rent can dislodge.Some tales turn on vengeance reaching across centuries. Others glint with a crooked humor at the edge of fear. All share the old conviction that the uncanny is never so far off as sensible people would prefer to believe.
